Public Interest/Public Sector Day

The 29th AnnualNorthern California Public Interest/Public Sector Legal Careers Day (PI/PS Day)will be held in February, 2013. PI/PS Day is a career fair for students interested in obtaining public interest and public sector jobs. It is a great way for students to meet with a large number of public interest and government organizations and agencies in one place and at one time. It is an annual event sponsored each February by nine Northern California law schools and OneJustice.The general public is also invited to attend PI/PS Day, although only students of sponsoring schools may participate in formal interviews. Some organizations conduct formal interviews, but most contacts are made on an informal basis, as explained below. PI/PS Day has two components:

Meet the Advocates: Students can speak informally with attorneys from multiple organizations and agencies seated at individual tables. Students do not need to make any advance arrangements with individual organizations for these sessions.Many students obtain part-time and summer positions from Meet the Advocates.
